As a fellow fat man, I would encourage you to reconsider your goal and think about your long-term health. That said, if you ARE dead-set on doing this, you would be well-served to reconsider the wisdom of this statement:

To me, following a strict routine IS common sense.
My excellence in consumption is probably part of how I got as strong as I am. I can put food away, no doubt about it. You will be wasting all of that food you eat if you are not following a sensible program grounded in progressive overload.
If you want to see what my routine looks like you can see it on my log. Is it an optimal routine? Probably not, but it is good and it certainly has gotten me a LOT stronger in less than one year.
Starting a log of your own would also be a good idea.
Best of luck to you.

Hey thanks dude.
When I say a routine I meant I do not want to follow a set strict routine like SS or a 5x5. I will be basically just splitting my workouts into upper and lower days.
So my upper might be triples with 90% of my 1RM squat and then some accessory work, then the upper day might be high volume overhead pressing followed up by some incline DB bench and then some heavy barbell rowing.
Your way of lifting seems pretty similar to mine from your log, except you stay low reps every session.
By the way how is the pull-up progression going? have you considered using bands?
